Violeta (English Translation)
Ozomatli
In a desert far away from you, I confessed
That everything I always believed, was a lie
I'm a brother, I'm a husband, son and father
I'm a warrior, and lots of blood overflows
Alone with my sorrow
Alone with my pain
I suffer from this condemnation
From not seeing you anymore
Violeta
I wanted to escape from this massacre
Just for you
But my life got overtaken by a bullet
And I lost
I was a brother, I was a husband, son and father
I was a soldier, and so much blood overflows
Alone with my sorrow
Alone with my pain
I suffer from this condemnation
From not seeing you anymore
Violeta
Everything you could do
Which I could never see
That if you will love the one who wins
Peace has to lose
Today the decision
Is left for you
To leave your own flesh and blood, or go to die
And what does your mom say?
Your brother and your father,
What do they say?
Your son and your spouse, what do they say?
The grandchildren, your grandmother
Tell me what they say
People, what do they say?
The musicians of the world, what do they say?
From the front lines of the fight,
What do they say?
For equality and human rights
Tell me what they say
